Thunevin Calvet, Trois Marie Vintage:2015 finishing smooth

finishing smooth

There is outstanding richness and volume to the equally pure

this 2019 reflects the new precision that Frédéric Faye has brought to Figeac

The palate has a rich entry

so much so that it is quite difficult to even discern the tannins but they are there

Thunevin Calvet, Trois Marie Vintage:2015 finishing smoothFrom a vintage that saw a fair bit of rain at the end of the season, the 2015 Ctes Du Roussillon Villages Les Trois Marie (65% Grenache and 35% Syrah) has lots of plum, tobacco, iron, and peppery herb like notes as well as a concentrated, powerful style on the palate. This is a ripe, textured, straight up sexy Roussillon with no hard edges and a great, great finish. It has at least another decade of prime drinking ahead of it.
